2 April 2015

Love your neighbor, even the ones who do not show you
the same courtesy. You can’t expect to receive love if you’re selective and not
really willing to give it. What you put into the world, you will indeed get
back, even if it’s not from the person you’re expecting it to be.[Alexandra Elle,Words from a Wanderer]

Cancer is teaching me daily how little I know. How much I
skate. How hard it is for me to DO the sorts of things that I BElieve matter “most”
or at least more than pretty much anything else. I guess that’s all okay
though. I DO love learning and I shall only EVER know such a small bit of all
there is…

Readying my art, much of it several years old Now, has been
such a BEautimous adventure. So, okay, TOO many times I thought it enough
just to make it. I came to wonder if I shouldn’t just leave it as is, until the
day I realised what giving my art, all of it, to Hospice of the Valley actually
means to me.

So much of my wrongheadedness and cornfuzzlement rise out of
my thinking I know what I am DOing.
